Abstract
Management ensure well-coordinated efforts aimed at ensuring the effectiveness of the literacy education to serve the marginalized groups. Thus, this paper focuses attention on the strategies for ensuring effective management of literacy education for marginalized groups in rural communities of Kwara State, Nigeria. It looks into the concept of literacy and literacy education as it impacts marginalized individual economic well-being. It is accepted that effective management of literacy education could enhance individual marginalized group abilities to cope with the evolving challenges they experience and enhance their chances in the society where they belong. Hence, education has to be redefined in the context of marginalized individuals to make it responsive to their yearning for better living conditions. The paper takes a review of marginalized groups, their features and status, certain strategies to address literacy education among the marginalized groups were discussed. Against this premise, conclusions were drawn, and some recommendations were made to include the need for the need to expand learning programmes to nooks and corners of the federation and the learning centers must be placed close to learners’ residences so as to encourage regular participation by all. Also, governments at all levels in Nigeria should develop and implement interventions such as subsidies for direct educational costs and greater cultural sensitization to the educationally marginalized groups. Also, appropriate national government policy and political will are necessary preconditions to expanding access to educationally marginalized populations.
